Smoke detectors replacements transcription Hello, welcome to SD Fire Alarms. What I'm
going to talk about today is how to choose the
right replacemen t if you have installed a BRK 86 RACEN, or
a 2002 RACE smoke detector.
There are two choices that you can make, both of which have slight differences.
The easiest and quickest option would be to use 670 MBX. This smoke detector will actually
fit on to the existing baseplate you have on the ceiling at the mom
ent. The slight drawback is that you will have to replace the connector
block because the connector block that is there
would not fit in to the back of the 670 MBX. The other choice would be to use a BRK 7010
BE, in fact this is probably a better choice b
ecause it's an optical smoke detector. The nice thing is that the connector block that
you have at the moment would fit directly in to
the back of this detector. When it comes to fixing
it, what you will have to do is to make a slight modification. That wo
uld be a new existing baseplate. The new baseplate would fit concentrically
inside it, and you simply screw the two together. Fit the detector on to the base,
and connect it to the electrical supply
and that's it, job done.
Just let me summarize that for you. You got two choices. You got the BRK
670 MBX or the BRK 7010 BE. The 670 MBX will fit on to the
existing baseplate that you have at the moment, but you'll have to change the electrical
connector block. The 7010 BE, probably a better choice of detecto
r, uses e xactly the same connector block
so you don't need to mess with the electrics at all. It will fit on to its new baseplate
inside the existing baseplate on the ceiling.
You can buy both of these smoke detectors from
